What is Material Requirement Planning?

Material Requirements Planning (MRP) is a production planning, scheduling, and inventory control system used to manage manufacturing processes. It helps ensure that materials are available when needed for production and that manufacturing capacity is available to meet demand. MRP systems work backward from a production schedule to determine the quantity and timing of raw materials, components, and subassemblies required to meet that schedule.
